IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Peter V.
Demarco
July 20, 1927 – May 15, 2017
Saratoga Springs, NY - Peter V. DeMarco passed away on Monday, May 15, 2017, after a brief illness. He was born on July 20, 1927 in the Bronx, NY.
Peter was proud of his service in the US Navy and then the Marine Corp as a medic during WWII. After receiving an honorable discharge he returned to college to finish out his degree. He was a graduate of Iona College, where he received a Bachelor of Science in Business. Peter started a successful rep agency in 1964 and that legacy continues today, 53 years later.
He spent his summers in Saratoga Springs and wintered on Hilton Head Island, SC where he loved to golf. Peter also loved being on the water and boated for most of his life, navigating the entire Northeast by boat. One of his greatest pleasures was spending time with his loving family. He was an inspiration to so many people and touched so many lives throughout his life.
Peter is survived by his wife, Aline DeMarco and her two sons, Scot (Laura) Sakolish, Craig (Karen) Sakolish; his daughters Geraldine (Frank) McCarthy, Elizabeth (Ted) Loftus; seven grandchildren and his three loving nieces.
He was predeceased by his son James F. DeMarco in 1968.
Missed by all who knew him, Peter will never be forgotten for all the love he gave and good he did for everyone he touched.
